Kate Winslet: Matthew McConaughey was almost Jack

Kate Winslet, who played Rose DeWitt Bukator, appeared on “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert” and dropped details on when she auditioned for James Cameron’s 1997 film. The 42-year-old actress said Matthew McConaughey was initially the favorite to play Jack.

"I auditioned with Matthew, isn't that weird?" Winslet told Colbert on Friday. "Never said that in public before. I auditioned with Matthew, which was completely fantastic…It just wouldn't have been the whole, Jack and Rose, Kate and Leo thing."
